since 2005 i have corresponded with lori who's in federal prison in greenville, illinois. one of seven step and half siblings, lori was born and raised in ottumwa in a family that she describes as studiously normal and benign. despite this, lori dropped out of high school as a freshman and began living in an ottumwa rooming house where in the evenings there was a running poker game. the landlady was also a madam. in exchange for room and board, lori and her young cohorts could either agree to sleep with the men who played cards or deliver illegally-prescribed pills, an early form of pharmaceutical meth, to the landlady's clients. lori chose the latter. thus, her career along with her legend was born. lori kept herself housed by delivering and selling brown and clears, as pharmaceutical meth was called during the 1970s when it was prescribed by the millions as a weight loss aid and antidepression drug. the landlady got most of lori's profits though and to make ends meet, lori still had to work six days a week at a local bar. by 15, lori was married. by 16, she was divorced
